Yes, definitely "No number".

The enumerator has written this in exactly the same place where he has put house numbers on other entries.

Can you give the family's names as I can't find them to have a look?

In the 1818 census, Westham, Plaistow, pages 10 and 11 the address for my Porter Family says 'Mary St No No'
I've looked on all the other pagesa and some entrie say Mary St others have the No No after it. I did wonder if it had been mistranscribed as Poplar, but when I compared the writing in other parts of the page is appears not to be.
Any ideas about what it might mean?
